about

I will sing to the Lord with my life; I will offer hymns to my God  as long as I am alive;  May my words be pleasant to Him; I will rejoice in the Lord.
(Psalm 104:33-34)

lyrics

Sing unto God, sing for the earth and the sky 
and the children who sing unto God,
Sing for the light in their eyes
and the stars that shine off in the sky,
(I will sing me a song unto God)  
Sing with the breeze for the hills and the trees, 
(I will sing me a song unto God)  
Sing out a song, all my life I will sing it

Ashira l’Adonai b’chaya,
Azamra l’Elohai b’odi, 
Ye’erov elov s’chi, Anochi esmach Adonai,
Ashira l’Adonai b’chaya…

Sing unto God, sing out a song and a story
of God  and of glory and sing  in the light of the day,
in the evening the songs fly away, 
(I will sing me a song unto God)
May my song be the  sound of rejoicing 
(I will sing me a song unto God)
Sing out a song,  all my life I will sing it

Ashira l’Adonai b’chaya…
